4:03 pm
a human being. i started to call myself what i had been told that i was, and that was my number 558. that was my number in the in room in may. 2002. i was interrogated by the c i and the f b i and they threatened if i did not corporate to send me either to egypt or serious to be tortured with us. are you with the enemy? there is no in between and that doctors still stay on the line. i think it's quite clear to me that united states respond to the terrible acts of 911
4:04 pm
was vengeance. the war on terror is not a police operation. it's a military operation. why they pick from me, it wasn't just me. they picked on everyone who knows if anybody prepared to hand you over to country to talk to you. you know, i live is a part of that is and the bill of rights. and i'm my terrorist and i'm a deal national. they handed me over to the americans without any legal process before i was held that for a year in 2002 to 2003. and i saw 2 individuals beaten to death by american soldiers. these terrorists played by a whole set of different rules. it's going to force us in your words to get me dirty and master in order to take them. i will use all tools at our disposal to do so. the
4:05 pm
boys a few bad apples and isolated incidents one by one. the terrorists are learning the meaning of american justice to lead this place. a pity mize. what the united states was doing in afghanistan, they were bringing people to this torture sight afghans ordering africa and abusing them outside of the rule of law and then allowing some of them to go back home. and they would go home and tell people what the americans did. by the time i got to guantanamo, i was begging to go to turn on because what i've seen and witness in background was so destructive to this day i have, i can't sleep. oh, i,
4:06 pm
several of us was sent to one tunnel including several taliban members who now heads of various departments in the act and government were tortured. we were stripped, we were beaten, was spat upon. we were humiliated photographs. this was taken during this period of time. they had a, the sounds of a woman in the next room that led me to believe was my wife being tortured. they waved with pictures of my children in front of me and asked, where do you think they are now, what do you think happened in the night and took your way? and of course, what they wanted me to do was trying a confession that i was a member of al qaeda, which i was not. and this was, i'd say stand that i got it. i think i got it better than a lot of the other prison. ah, ah ah ah, ah,
4:07 pm
so this is the hon made calendar that i made when i was in guantanamo, i thought that perhaps if i counted the days that it will be easier. but when the days tended to weeks and months, and then 2 years, i realized that it was just futile. when i received such letters from my children who are very young at the time, it's actually made it worse to look at the calendar and start the count down the days my children growing up without me. and every day, without them, with a stab in the heart. and they would come sporadically, they had to be vetted uncensored by the us censorship. my daughter who was 6 at the time, wrote a poem, 12345. once i caught official life and they redacted that because they said that has numbers in a numbers could mean some sort of a code. so it was that kind of nonsensical reduction disconnecting from the idea of being a father. ironically and sadly, but also my own personal faith,
4:08 pm
my belief in god my reading, the koran and again and expectedly becoming friends with several of the american soldiers who would bring me little snippets of information. sometime next week in a chocolate. sometime that we can a dvd player and show me a film deluxe of humanity that i have never forgotten to this day. and i think i left guantanamo not hating america because of those soldiers, me messages directly from some american soldiers who say that this has be a, a war that has destroyed us as individuals, soldiers, i told me that they cannot sleep at night. so i am in no doubt about the,
4:09 pm
the effects of this war, not just on the individuals, but on the nation as a whole of whom the soldiers representative me has gone to the shop and unity types were destroyed. the united states produced a senate report on torture, but not a single person was ever bought for charges for these crimes. recently, i gave evidence the international criminal court for their investigations of abuses by americans. enough. they would investigate to be like states, the national army and the taliban. the only ones who responded by threatening the international court was the united states of america. they said that we will sanction all members of the national court. we will arrest any members of the icpc who come to the usa or elsewhere the want to investigate us. i think the united
4:10 pm
states of america needs to step back. if it wants to help any of any assistance to the people who understand it's got in a position to negotiate those conditions. it has, it has been an aggressor. the taliban already made gestures to russia to its china, to it's the wrong to it's pakistan with indonesia would be like states and britain in particular. i think the feeling very upset because this is a defeat. it's a military defeat. however, you want to look at it and that imperial hubris, as it were, will not allow them to say that we need to move forward and continue within negotiations that we began in doha, that they cannot be any more saber rattling. it's no good for the people, it's no good sense. no with the britain or america you've really got to find a way forward. and we will have a special post team throughout the week speaking to those whose lives were shattered by the us war on terror. now in the meantime,
4:11 pm
video has merged us soldiers firing into the air and ground comple airport in the, in late august as crowds of desperate afghans tried to force their way onto the airfield. footage was posted by us marine garden, the airport. it depicts service members throwing smoke grenades far in morning shots and pointing their weapons at civilians with women and children among them are can officials earlier confirmed to that warning shots were indeed fired as a means of crowd control. people airport is now devoid of western troops and the taliban control. u. s. military tried to destroy whatever equipment they could before leaving, which can also be seen in the marines. video here are senior correspondent broadcast the f reports next from the airport. these place looks very different to what we arrived to during the evacuation that cleaning the place up there is said enormous amount of work to do what with all the vehicles, all the armament,
4:12 pm
all the ammunition that was left behind by us and allied forces as they retreated as above while they're both walls of it, this tool as a person that is still being cleaned up. but as i said, there's a lot of work to do these evacuation that the pentagon called the largest and most complex in history, left a whole lot of trash behind trash, wreckage and de brie. the taliban command that tells us they destroyed 95 percent of the equipment, stuff and systems. they destroyed everything and destroyed cars. airplanes, especially the military for us are destroyed 100 percent. we asked to see the airports and once crammed into the back of a pickup truck. we got our wish. it was like a movie set, a disaster scene. our 1st stop was the helicopter graveyard, all the helicopters and there are
4:13 pm
a lot of them that were abandoned at capital airport. they have been sabotaged quite visibly. the wires have been cut various various electrical blocks removed and smashed, apparently with a sledge hammer. anything the taliban or even afghans could use the americans destroyed and what they couldn't bring themselves to destroy. they let loose the, the gold crate. the pool such as the on lot. you have the yet many of the gold bullets behind by the american booth. but they were locked in crates, as we had said to believe they what they will let you at the dentist, someone before the fire us troops had taken someone, had opened all the crates and left them with, with whom online animal activists have mobilized in the thousands their incense
4:14 pm
that the american troops could have left behind these dogs right there next to the runway. at the mercy of the taliban, the americans live the dogs to get out from the specific places. but our teens or officials called the in charge of those dogs and to dave, they came to the port and they are trying to collect the docks and they are trying to in the facility for them and what they need to give them all we can say that they are safe, these may be just what the taliban needs. a p r stunt. collect the dogs and the move with the activists and reap the humanitarian glory. alternatively, they may have enough on their plate. she, the americans didn't just the store, the helicopters and vehicles, they trashed much more than that when i was at the, at the morning to the airport. so i saw a lot of destructions here. many things were destroyed. i don't know who did
4:15 pm
this actually, american was there. we have got damage in the road. you can see at the backside of me, it was also damage. but fortunately by the help of a lobby made it and we might make it correct. the other interesting thing about the airport is the, the hundreds of armored diplomatic vehicles that have been left here abandoned during the evacuation. they used these vehicles to block off roads while the evacuation was on the way. this is passport control at kabul international airport. this is the states that it was left in after the evacuation was complete for some reason, other than destroying or the military vehicles and across the united states left behind. they also did for much of the airport civilian infrastructure, computers, x rays, cameras, even arrival and departure screens. here they saying it was the americans who cut
4:16 pm
the power cables knocked over the monitors, smashed windows and kicked in doors, even new to the vending machines. why? perhaps boredom, perhaps hate. you don't end the 20 year war and leave in a humiliating evacuation without feeling a little bit of spite more i'd guess d a r t couple. i've gotten this done more with some european countries refusing to take afghan refugees. a recent joint statement from the you has pledge, 300000000 euros to help nations who border have kind of stand deal with the flow of newcomers over the past few days. thousands of afghan refugees have entered pakistan, setting up a makeshift camp in a one border crossing the country's already home for about one and a half 1000000 afghans. and as is, i'm a bad has recently announced it's closing the crossing due to the sheer volume of people arriving don't quarter takes a closer look at another migrant crisis in the making. as the u. s. fled war torn
4:17 pm
afghanistan, it left countless thousands, either displaced or scrambling to leave the country. and now your opinions are having flashbacks of the 2015 migration crisis. oh, based message known to you and its members state stand determined to act jointly to prevent the reoccurrence of uncontrolled, large scale illegal migration movements faced in the past. appropriate security checks should be carried out, including through the full use of relevant to you databases, as well as registration in euro deck. this time though brussels is ready to buy out afghanistan's neighbors, as long as they're the ones willing to bear the brunt of the refugee influx. the you will engage in strengthening support to 3rd countries. in particular, the neighbor and intransitive countries host in large numbers of migrants and
4:18 pm
refugees to reinforce their capacities, to provide protection, dignified and safe reception conditions and sustainable livelihood. for refugees and host communities, semi you countries like austria, poland, and hungary have flat out, refused to accept any new migrants. while germany has sent its foreign minister, high co moss, to plead with the middle east and central asia. but many countries are already at full capacity around in pakistan, for example. so the highest influx of afghan last year with the latter accepting nearly $1500000.00 new asylum seekers to push to the capacity. you know, can we absorb more if we give is what needs to be understood. it's no wonder as lama bod is not looking for any more oral focus on we're not support. massive influx of refugees to focus on the facts and he have millions of refugees. this is a burden on both sides of the sources because the international community is not forthcoming
4:19 pm
and it has also created social nomic problems in the past for decades. same is true about it on the main question is why these refugees are to go to you don, are focused on only why not the rest of the world, especially the developed war or the european union? are the states should accept those refuses in 2020 to iran also accepted a whopping 780000 refugees despite crippling sanctions. while this year, thousands more are expected. it's not like the country is getting much in the way of international aid either. now, the financial assistance provided by the un and the european union, etc. they are welcome. of course, they provide very little compared to what it will actually cost for the government to host these peoples. well, iran already has a can refugee population of around
4:20 pm
a 1000000 with a total of over $2000000.00 are counties currently living in iran. so iran is already hosting a very large can population. and because of the current american sanctions on your, on the raining economy is not doing very well. and i think having a person, iraqi, jeez, any year on is going to be very problematic for the government. you can also count turkey on the list of migrant overloaded countries. back in 2016 europe, provided ankara, assistance to stem the flow of europe, bound migrants. and to this day, 3700000 syrian refugees and around 300000 afghans remain as turkey, we have sufficiently carried out our moral and humanitarian responsibilities regarding migration, it is out of the question for us to take an additional refugee burden. another regional player took a stan has agreed to accept some refugees temporarily while as becca stand has
4:21 pm
completely closed its borders to them. so as the west wraps up, it's costly and arguably, pointless. 20 or conflict. it seems like they're expecting others to clean up the mess it left behind. they have meddled with janice that they have ruined their security and they left the atkins unstable. they left them in a way that they rather where sure that there would be war and instability in the country. and they don't care about the problems that they have cause they, us should not be allowed to escape the prices. the europeans who aided the united states, they should not be allowed to escape the prices. they are the 1st and main party that are needed to pay the price for their, you know, for the fire that they started in this region. you know, the news to 911 people have died in new york and new jersey is hurricane either
4:22 pm
continues to wreak havoc in the united states. the hurricane is not recognized as one of the strongest in american history of the storm had previously hit southern regions. the u. s, but is now continuing its way across the northeast flooding neighborhoods, causing widespread power outages and plenty of destruction. new york and new jersey have already declared a state of emergency while it's been reported that tornadoes have also route through parts of pennsylvania and maryland. how it would snowden slammed apple? what he believes to be an encroachment on privacy. he says that he says could lead to governments trolling through your phone. the u. s. tech giant says it wants to scan content on uses mobiles in an effort to crack down on child pornography. however, the essay whistle blow warns at once, it starts to fish for such files. it opens the door for governments to search for other behavior to be criminal instead of
4:23 pm
a private company in their bibles, in the cloud, on their systems. now, on your home, they take it away that separation between what they and what you all know, they're telling your device what to once they say you can't have this file on your phone and we develop the system to detecting they decide in the future. what kind of files will be searched for? it's no longer company question. it's a good question. but in an interview with the russian media this no, no, to discuss the results, us intervention, we're not going to scan. i'm 1st until after 2, when he, when asked if he thinks he'll win the nobel peace prize, snowden has be nominated with songs and chelsea manning the 2021. actually you can reach me back at r t dot com. now it is time to get back on board with you on
4:24 pm
a cruise with the difference because icebergs and arctic animals rule, part of today's report from the russian nuclear icebreaker, taking our correspondence to the north pole, braving the cold. once again, his constantine brush cough previously or departing from the city of more mascot, the whole board of worlds only nuclear ice breaker plate. this ship is huge. i mean it's basically like a rebuilding step and our cabin, nothing fancy, but it has everything we need. we walk around the ship. i see radiation doesn't mean i could be exposed to radiation. correct? i'm writing more like a lot. we're going all the way to the north. now it's time to meet the captain. a tall, handsome man who likes to smoke his bite on the bridge while steering the mighty
4:25 pm
vessel forward. at the other 20 miles. it's the rudder as i understand. we'll move through all the more than you can effectively cool the ship's wheel, the rudder. and it has automatic steering, which holds the ship's course. some deals with that. so this is something like an auto pilot, right? tony's axiom of the bill that's quite an auto pilot. auto pilot is what keeps an aircraft in 3 dimensions. whereas on a ship, it's just to show up. and then if i turn the rudder or that was it was i was setting you. course the vessel will turn in just to a new steady course. and this is what happens on a lower deck every time the captain adjusts the course. the helm sets these large pistons in motion, which turns the ship left. we're right there. we were on the bridge interviewing the captain, and we were lucky enough to side our 1st arctic iceberg. let me show you this. back to the day. icebergs aren't 100 percent white. they have these beautiful to
4:26 pm
a washing. they also come in handy for local birds. it's an habitable iceberg, i can tell. there are birds on the birds which rest in the water. they use any surface that they find it an iceberg or a ship. they use it to take a rest. after 2 days of sailing, we reach friends, joseph land, and uninhibited arctic archipelago which belongs to russia or the northern most part of russia and a last piece of land on the way to the north pole. so in advance, we're approaching the edge of the world. now the most dangerous part of our journey begins. if something happens, it will take days for someone to come rescue us from now on. we can count only in ourselves and our captain the
4:27 pm
well, well this is what it feels like. the ice breakers allowing for the ice, everything trembling and we can't admit when the ship hits the, i mean, it's huge. blaze on the deck. let's get a closer look. they are their part bored for sailors that are constantly working underneath the vessel. my things at an icebreaker, ramsey, i what it actually rides upon it 1st and then crushes downward with all the mine, and that's one. the propellers come into play. they help chop the into small pieces, paving the way forward watching the ship break the arts and push dry and chunks of
4:28 pm
it inside is mesmerized. it's really both calming and intimidating at the same. have a look at this. the white path led by the ice gregory's close enough as soon as we had passed through in a few minutes the hours. it's all going to be covered with ice again as it we've never been here. shows you who the boss is around here and i guess makes you feel small and insignificant parts of the ships start to cover with ice as we get closer to the north pole. however, the temperature isn't extreme just under 0 degrees celsius. unlike me, veteran polar explorer who we interviewed on the deck even refused to put his hat on that. it's a common misconception that the north pole is the coldest spot on the earth. it's completely false. the north pole is the middle of an ocean. the ocean does it kind of have storage as it allows temperature spike frequently at the north pole. it's warmer than let's say in tango or mac on or means. the pole of coal does not
4:29 pm
coincide with an actual geographical one. be there by ascii has taken several dozen expeditions to the north pole. global warming, he says, is speaking. it's tall on the arctic and the eyes becomes thinner every year. however, he doesn't believe men made c, o 2 emissions are to blame for everything. like what can i share the same viewpoint, take off fine. do also think with this process is not a reversible in nature. the anthropogenic factor is the main way. what it means is that imagined for a 2nd, we'll switch to green energy and stop producing c o 2 in the atmosphere, all the factories a close. and you think this will some, these don't know why it's coming up next. well, don't be fooled by his adorable look, a polar bear. we'll go after anything that's moving. if it's there time, it's midnight. but look how bright it is. it looks to me. we are on top of the
4:30 pm
coming together and go it in amazing place. we'll have another report to go from konstantin from the take to morrow. just come out to half 11 in moscow. we're back again in 30 minutes. oh, i know when i would show the wrong one. i just don't i mean you rule out the thing because the after an engagement equals the trail when so many find themselves well the part we choose to look for common ground.
